Synchronicity, to the chaote looking for an edge to make reality wake up and take notice of their desires, can best be thought of as weaponised coincidence. Historically, it can also be viewed as an interlinking of events which betray some higher meaning whilst having no causal relationship in the material world.

Ever Onward
Magick is the journey, not the destination. I forget exactly where on the proto-internet I originally came across that particular bastardisation of a much more well known phrase, but it has stuck with me ever since.

This ersatz approach to divinity is one of the … Continue reading Unblessed Be
Technopagan Problems
The term Technopagan is a difficult one, as taken literally it is in and of itself an anachronism.
